The season premieres of "Californication" "Shameless" and "House of Lies," turned out to be potent combination for Showtime on Sunday night, as all three series grabbed record ratings, the network said Monday.

The third season premiere of "Shameless" at 9 p.m. took in 2 million viewers, the series' highest-rated episode to date and a 46 percent boost over the show's Season Two average. The Season Three opener was also up a considerable 26 percent from last season's kickoff.

With re-airings taken into account, the "Shameless" premiere amassed 2.6 million viewers, a 26 percent jump over its cumulative total for the Season Two premiere.

The second season of the Don Cheadle-starring "House of Lies," meanwhile, kicked off at 10 p.m. and drew in 1.19 million total viewers -- a series best for the show, and up 43 percent from its Season One average. (Compared to its series premiere, "House of Lies" was up 15 percent.) Overall for the night, "House of Lies" accumulated 1.54 million total viewers, up 33 percent from its Season One average.

The most senior series of the trio, "Californication," also started its latest season on a personal best, drawing a series-high average of 1.07 million viewers with its 10:30 airing, a 48 percent surge over its Season Five average and a 41 percent boost over its previous season's premiere. With re-airings taken into account, the "Californication" premiere amassed 1.3 million total viewers, a 39 percent jump over last season's average and a 26 percent leap over its Season Five premiere.

In the meantime, HBO's "Girls" -- which took home two Golden Globes on Sunday night -- premiered its second season on Sunday on a par with its series premiere, drawing 866,000 total viewers with its initial 9 p.m. airing.
Across three plays, "Girls" accumulated 1.6 million total viewers, 42 percent higher than last year's series premiere, though that episode only had two airings for its premiere night.
HBO's "Enlightened" also kicked off its second season Sunday night, enjoying a 43 percent boost over its series premiere (which aired on a Monday) last year with 300,000 viewers for its initial 9:30 p.m. airing.
